Victims of 1970's police brutality will be compensated

Speaking at a conference entitled "December '70 - We remember," which was organized to pay tribute to the victims, Tusk said, "I take personal responsibility for finally resolving this issue within the coming few weeks. I do not understand and I do not agree to talking about giving such compensation and not doing anything about it," said Tusk. According to official data, the police attacks on the protesters killed 44, and seriously injured over 1,000 people. Around 3,000 were brutally beaten and arrested. "People responsible for this tragedy, people who were making the orders and who were carrying them out have to be held responsible," added the PM. According to representatives of Law and Justice (PiS), it is not true that nothing has been done about this as they have introduced a new bill, while they were ruling, which envisages compensation for all victims of the communist regime.
